"Emilokan" Does Not Means "Awalokan" - Sowore To South West by Racoon(op):

Yoruba People Who Thought Tinubu Meant It Was Their Turn When He Said ‘Emilokan’ Now Understand He Doesn’t Represent Them —Sowore

He lamented that Nigerians had yet to rescue the country from the political class that contributed immensely to the current socio-economic challenges facing the country.

#RevolutionNow convener, Mr Omoyele Sowore has mocked the people of the southwest region of Nigeria who thought President Bola Tinubu wanted to be the country’s president for their interests. Sowore made this known in his speech at a recent event organised by his supporters in New York, United States of America.

He lamented that Nigerians had yet to rescue the country from the political class that contributed immensely to the current socio-economic challenges facing the country. Sowore added that the same people who benefited from the immediate past administration of Muhammadu Buhari remained in the corridors of power after Bola Tinubu took over power as President.

He said, “We have not rescued our country yet, so why the haste to write a book, documentary or a movie? We are not there yet because the guys who brought Nigeria to its knees are still in charge of Nigeria.

“It does not matter that they changed their cultural looks because when Buhari was in power, everybody was wearing a Hausa hat, but if you go to Abuja now, everybody is wearing Yoruba ‘pentagon’, because that is what is in vogue.


“It is all about business as usual because the man in charge now said it is his turn, he did not say it is Yoruba’s turn but the Yorubas accidentally and mistakenly thought he was saying it is their turn.”

“Now the Yorubas are facing what is called ‘enikanloba’ (Only those who are affected will suffer) not ‘emilokan’ anymore and the rest of Nigeria are facing what we call ‘renowned shege’ which is the opposite of renowned hope,” he added.

He also narrated his experience when he was unlawfully detained by the Nigerian Government for several months. He continued: “So many people would want to ask me, what is detention like? There is nothing new about detention because I have been there before.

“But if you have never been to detention before, which was why I was advising my friend, Olu Faloye. I have been there before; you don't want to go there because one of the things they would do to you is to destabilise you. And they want to disempower you. They want you to beg for your rights.

“They want you to beg for the simplest things. For someone like me, who is used to it, I am a repeat offender when it comes to Nigerian incidents, I didn’t worry when they took away my phones, but someday I found a way to smuggle in a phone. I was making phone calls. Even the day they wanted to release me, they made a call to me and said, ‘They said they should release you.’

“When they came to me and said, ‘Go and get your things, we want to see you downstairs,’ I said I am not going anywhere. He went and came back and I went to make another phone call. They said, ‘What did you do to these people? They said they came and you said you didn’t want to leave.’

“He came back and said, ‘Mr Sowore if you don't go, we are going to force you.’ I said, ‘No! Tomorrow is Christmas, and I want to spend it with you.’ It was because I was able to smuggle in a phone.”

That's why he said Emilokan (it's my turn) and NOT Awalokan (it's our turn).

No one ever thought he meant Awalokan.

They will call him omo ale or IPOB now. Good that Sowore was also part of those who enthroned this sets of disaster in 2015.

Tinubu NEVER said it was yoruba's turn. The Yoruba he spoke was simple enough. Sowore is just creating funny scenarios in his head.

Tinubu was voted all over Nigeria for his political sagacity and good work he did in lagos. Only the SE rejected him for obvious reasons. They felt it was their turn.

Does he mean people like Mr Emefiele, Prof Gambari, Capt Hadi Sirika, Malami and Senator Amosu too?

As you can hear it from the opening statement, he boldly said it. Don't always come to a public forum like this to think you can broadcast lies and propaganda. The world have left you behind.

Atiku, Obi, Tinubu, Kwankwaso e.t.c are all cut from the same cloth. They are all staunch Nigerian politicians. Choose your poison.

Tell that to that Obidient that killed his son because of a pot of soup or those Obidients in Enugu that sold their votes for a plate of Jollof and Okpa.

EMILOKAN IS SINGULAR AND IT MEANS TINUBULOKAN.
IT WILL BECOME AWALOKAN AFTER TINUBU RETURNS FULL AUTONOMOUS POLICING RESOURCING AND ELECTIONEERING STATUSES TO OUR 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATES AND ACCEPT A CERTIFIED TITHES CONTRIBUTION SYSTEM TO RUN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
THAT ALSO WILL BE AWALOKAN TO

Silly talks

Regardless of who becomes the president, the consequences of his economic policy was sure gonna affect his or othrr people,so I dont knw why Sowore is making it seem like BAT winning an election automatically translates to Yorubas believing they're excluded from effects of negative policies


It's been like this for ages and it's just common sense


Guys who think having 1million billionaires in Nnewi is gonna affect a random Chibuzor hawking Gala in Lagos traffic would also come here to drop their myopic input 🗑️🗑️

Re: "Emilokan" Does Not Means "Awalokan" - Sowore To South West by UncleAyo:
And I like Sowore Omoyele more than this statement I read. Let me believe that his words were misconstrue by the media and that he will make a rebuttal and apologise.

Playing opposition is not the same as bigotry: the continuous blaming of Yorubas who share their votes between the three prominent presidential candidates is strangely illogical as it sound.

Peter Obi won in Lagos, Atiku won in Osun state, Bola Tinubu won in other five Yoruba states by only small margin.

It is also a fact that less than 1/10 of Yoruba people participated in the last election.

If you want to play opposition, criticize the people in government and their policies. Not Yorubas, the same people you will be looking up to in the next election to vote for you.

You're only demarketing yourself and limiting your future political opportunities by playing childish publicly.
